Swollen gland.

I come down with a bad like fever 9 months ago. After it had past I got a saw throat for a week or so and a swollen gland. I ignored it for a number of month until I got to scared and went and seen gp. Even though it was swollen for a matter of months he said it would be fine and could be because I get bad heart burn so could be that. So I took some tablets for my stomach acid and heart burn went and gland started going down. So fast forward few more months till now and I've been off the pills for about two months and the heart burn come back and so has swollen gland on left side. My only worrying problem is every morning I wake up in a pile of sweat!! Could this mean I have lymphoma?? 

  • Hi Ibby and welcome to the forum.

    I'm sorry that your symptoms may have returned but unfortunately no-one here can tell you what this means. If you're worried do be sure to book back in with your GP as they'll be in the best position to help. 

    I hope you're able to get some answers and peace of mind soon Ibby.
